I've never heard of it. Of course, if it isn't sports, or a movie, I probably won't watch it. If it's a sitcom, I won't watch it.

I've never seen it either. I don't like watching medical shows.

Understood. I have a good friend from my mission who is an ER physician who doesn't watch medical shows either and is especially critical of the show "ER", though I don't know how he can be critical of it if he's never seen it. Then again, I only watched about 10 minute of the first episode and decided that it was an idiotic show, so he may not need to watch it to know how much it sucks.

I refuse to watch lawyer shows.

I thought tv was for sports, movies and the stock market report.

Okay I lie, I watch discovery, pbs and scifi as well.

I watch sports, the history channel, discovery channel and a few other educational channels. Sometimes C-SPAN to see politicians be themselves and not as someone trying to get elected.

National Geographic just showed up in HD and it's my new favorite channel. They've had tons of good stuff lately.

Yea I watched a show about the praying mantis the other day. High res, extreme zoom, it was freaky. Watching the female eat the head of her mate mid-coitus bite by bite (need I remind you) in high def, extreme zoom, wasn't the most pleasant viewing experience I've had. When they showed a mantis catch and eat a hummingbird I about lost it.

Nature is more violent than we humans could ever be. A mantis doing it's thing is instinct and isn't considered a social or mental disorder. But it would be very cool to see.

I'm opining about an article that I found interesting and the general state of writing for television. Since I started the thread I think it is incumbant upon me to opine about it
